Thank you Louise, so beautifully expressed.

I can see her beautiful dark eyes smiling at us all, right  now. 

In peace and love,

Isobel Bishop.

She had just come back from India and was probably carrying the effects of illness which she never talked about.  I had been in in-kind for several years and was glad to have a new team member to help.  The joy of it was she became a dear friend, a colleague is the truest sense of the word.  I got to know her beautiful children and her amazing husband.  Each and every one of them was truly a gift.  Molly was quiet but as solid as a rock.  She was thoughtful yet forward thinking.  Always caring about the other.

Dear Father Harold Naylor of Wah Yan College became our friend due to Molly and Jesse.  He was a dear friend and pastor to the staff in Nam Wai.  When it was time for our son, Chris, to join the Student House in Kemper in 1983, we asked Molly and Jesse to be his local parents.  They graciously said yes.  Of course, Jesse took him fishing.
